> Should we use Redis or Memcached?

Couldn't they have used an example aimed at a broader audience?

I'm in IT but even I barely know what Redis or Memcached is about (never used either).

90% of people here know what those are.

  • And with a more broadly applicable example we could share the link with friends, family and coworkers who aren't on HN.

    • But then it wouldn’t have tickled the HN reader quite the same way and wouldn’t have gotten voted to the top.

      This doesn’t even need to be a website at all. This is pure slop designed in a pig lab for HN trough.
